Has been and odd couple of days.
Need to check tmw exactly when the school needs me: should be wed-fri next week and then the 3 days a weektill easter (but not sure which 3 days as yet).
Will be moving on 31st March to a small cottage in the town, not the best but it will definatley help get life back on track.
I have just finished reading 'running free' a book written by a health 40 year old fell runner who had a mini stroke out of the blue and sufffered from locked in syndrome- this is where you are well aware of eveything that is gojng on but can't move, communicate,breath do anything for your self....and in many cases the Dr's aren't aware you are evn aloive, most people think you are a vegetable.
This woman made a full recovery and was out of hospital with a year!!!!!
All down to friends who noticed her and more to the point her bl**dly mindedness in refusing to beleiev what the dr's told her
next time I start wingin 10 iles into a 15 ,iler I think I ight just shut up:D or even when I think how hard this MSE way is, there is always someone who is far far worse off than you..Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

Well, the school have decided I have 3 days a week teaching from now until Easter, so at least £30 per week will go to pay off the debts:D, some to house running, some to saving and lots to debts!!! so am feeling pretty good today.
1st day back and DD';s were all sorted, and I spent the day talking to kids on how they could take up engineering as a career as i used to be one, and have now lost my voice.
need to make some pad's today and can then update my signature. I am hoping to get to under the £13k mark by end of March.Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

Not had much of a chance to PAD this week as the agency still haven't paid me and my spare money is now going for business stuff.
But the school have asked me to go full time up until Easter, which is 2 extra days a week. I have lots of work in for my own business as well which is good, but means I must be very strict with my time during the working day.
So, my plan for next week is to have 5 NSD (as I have budgeted for everything that needs to come out), get all DD2's b'day shopping out the way and start boxing things up for a possible move. I am moving but am waiting on the date from the agent.
Ideally I would like to make a PAD of £50 next week, maybe more.Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

Business bank stuff arrived yesterday, finally, so need to transfer the little that I have over.
Have lots of work heading my way judging by the state of my inbox, but, hey, that's all good. and the teaching is good so I know that I have money coming in till Easter.
Today I am child free!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well at least for a few hours. both DD's are out with friends, so I will do some work, read a little and generally relax:DProud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

What to do? I do have to get on with some work but as it's a week end I really ought to relax as well. so off to find a book (once I have bought some stuff for castle making)Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

oh dear, peace and quiet has come to an abrupt end, the sprogs are back.
Had a quick sleep in the afternoon sun, curled up with saggy cat and feel recharged enough to go for a run later, also have managed to rework out some figures: can clear 2 debts by end of May, which will make me feel a hell of a lot better. Even throwing an extra £5 a week till the end of the year should then clear yet another.
PAD today of 40p in change to the change pot. and found another diary to subscribe to but can't remember what it wasneed to do another search, oops
